Referees to 16 March

The Six Nations comes to an end and the man to blow the final whistle is Marius Jonker of South Africa, the final match and the one that will decide the winner then Wales play France in Cardiff. What a wonderful appointment for the man from Zululand.

It’s good to see Joël Jutge back in action after a long lay-off.
